The "Start Error" message can mean there is a failure with the Drive Authorization System. Do you have access to a spare or different key?
Try that first, if you have a spare key. Try locking and unlocking the van several times as well.
You will most likely need a diagnostic scanner to retrieve DTC codes
and hopefully they will shed some light on where the fault lays.
Good luck.

Think the dealer is expensive? Do you know how much it costs to train a dealer tech? Or buy the required MB special tools to have on hand?
